    💚“It begs the question, how can you win an award for Plant of the Year if the scale is not yet there, and you’re not yet an expert at growing this plant? And, you also weren’t the one to create it?” This says it all, and baffles me. Excellent research Chris. Very interesting history behind the cultivation, and spread of this plant. Can’t imagine calling it a “Cheesecake Monstera”!

    I know thai constellation has root rot issues, but i got one anyways as a TC recently. Its in perlite, orchid bark, pumice, and some regular soil, its even more free draining than what i mix for all my cactus. Once it matures enough to transplant from my dinky plastic cup, its also gonna be set in a terracotta planter to really add a preventative measure.
    So far ive got 1 new leaf with no problems, but only time will tell if it makes it.
